Hi, If hyphenation is enabled, groff will split a line and add a hyphen to a word that already contains a hyphen. The compound adjective "peculiar-looking," for example, might get split as
pecu- liar-looking peculiar-look- ing This is subpar style, and I'd like to know if there's a way to tell groff not to add hyphens to words already containing hyphens, without inhibiting hyphenation of all other words. (I haven't tried these features in Heirloom troff, but it appears its .nhychar and .breakchar requests enable this restriction.) Thanks for any ideas.
